**Lähtökohta** on podcast, jossa pysähdytään katsomaan pintaa syvemmälle. Ohjelmassa tarkastellaan ilmiöitä, rakenteita ja päätöksiä Suomessa ja maailmalla. Aiheet liikkuvat tekoälyn, teknologian, energian, yhteiskunnan, talouden, vallankäytön ja ihmisyyden äärellä. Podcast hyödyntää myös tekoälyä äänen tuotannossa. Se ei ole sattumaa, vaan tietoinen valinta. Kun käsittelemme teknologiaa ja sen vaikutusta ihmiseen, myös tapa kertoa tarina on osa itse tarinaa. Ajatukset ovat ihmisen. Ääni voi olla tekoälyn. Rauhallinen ja analyyttinen podcast lähtökohdista, joita harvoin sanotaan ääneen.

    Episode 3 – When Music Travels

    Music doesn't belong to places. People do. But sometimes a place quietly shapes the people who later shape the music. Episode 3 of SALLA – Stories from the Middle of Nowhere follows musical journeys that connect a small community in northern Finland to a much wider world. Kimmo Blom.Nova Scotia.Stalingrad Cowgirls.Jaco Pastorius. Different musicians. Different generations. Different journeys. Nova Scotia emerged from Salla in the late 1980s, with Kimmo Blom among its members. Years later, another band from the same small northern community, Stalingrad Cowgirls, would take its music far beyond Finland — touring internationally and sharing stages with major international rock acts. And behind this journey remains the discovery that started the entire SALLA project: an unexpected connection found while researching Jaco Pastorius. Standing in Salla today, it is easy to hear only the wind. To watch reindeer crossing a quiet road. To see cranes returning every spring. Or the first snow settling across the forest. It feels timeless. Yet from this peaceful place, music travelled remarkably far. Looking back now, I no longer see these musicians as separate stories. I see different journeys. Different dreams. Different generations. Each found its own voice.Each followed its own path. But every journey needed a beginning. Every melody begins with a single note.Every journey begins with a single step.And sometimes the smallest places leave the longest echoes.

    BEHIND THE NUMBER — Episode 9: The Usual

    The café feels familiar. Maybe too familiar. A radio plays quietly in the background. Coffee is served. A train announcement drifts in from the station. Two people sit at a table, trying to remember what happened — and discovering that their memories no longer quite agree. Small things begin to matter. A time.A receipt.A pack of cigarettes.Something missing. And a barista who seems to know more than she should. BEHIND THE NUMBER continues with The Usual — a story about memory, repetition, and the strange moment when something ordinary stops making sense. Some things we remember. Some things remember for us. Music • Hanging Motionless — Mark Karan, Scott Guberman, Angeline Saris & Jeremy Hoenig• Care Is Heavy — Jeremy Korpas & Rick Barry * Ancient Civilisations — Alex Jones & Xander Jones Written, edited and produced by Aaro LuukinenLähtökohta Podcast © 2026

    BEHIND THE NUMBER — Episode 8: Between Station

    BEHIND THE NUMBER — Episode 8: Between Station They board the train at Platform Three. The doors close. The journey begins. But the station remains. Time no longer agrees with itself. The familiar becomes uncertain, and a number that has followed them before returns in a different way. Are they moving? Are they dreaming? Or is the journey taking them somewhere that cannot be measured in distance? BEHIND THE NUMBER A cinematic audio mystery about memory, time, identity and the things we notice only when we begin to listen. 🎧 Headphones recommended.

    SALLA – Stories from the Middle of Nowhere, Episode 2 – Matti Luukinen: The Master Builder

    Episode 2 – Matti Luukinen: The Master Builder Some stories are carried through words. Others are carried through what we leave behind. In Episode 2 of SALLA – Stories from the Middle of Nowhere, the journey turns to my father, Matti Luukinen — accordion builder, tuner and craftsman. His workshop was a world of its own. Accordions were built, repaired and tuned. Musicians came and went. Coffee was shared, stories were told, and as a child, I watched this world from close by. Matti's craftsmanship became known far beyond Salla. Instruments arrived at his workshop from across Finland and the Nordic countries, and his work earned respect among fellow accordion builders and musicians. He had learned the demanding craft of accordion tuning from master tuner Aki Lievonen — knowledge passed from one craftsman to another. Matti died in 2007 before he could fulfil a promise to pass that knowledge on once more. But craftsmanship has a way of continuing. Years later, I would find myself at a workbench of my own, building accordions and becoming part of another extraordinary journey. This is the story of a craftsman, a workshop, and a legacy that did not disappear when the tools fell silent.

    SALLA – Stories from the Middle of Nowhere | Episode 1 – Where Every Story Begins

    SALLA – Stories from the Middle of Nowhere Every story has a beginning. What began as research into the legendary bassist Jaco Pastorius unexpectedly became a journey into the history, people and heritage of Salla, a small community in northern Finland. Across seven documentary episodes, this series explores remarkable lives connected by one place. Through music, craftsmanship, nature and memory, the story follows unexpected connections that reach far beyond the Arctic. Meet master accordion builder Matti Luukinen, singer Kimmo Blom, writer and outdoorsman Unto Ek, the internationally touring Stalingrad Cowgirls, and discover the unique story of the Kauri Accordions—three handcrafted instruments built from ancient New Zealand Kauri wood, each beginning its own journey in a different part of the world. This is more than a documentary about Salla. It is a story about curiosity. About craftsmanship. About music. About nature. About history. And about how one unexpected discovery can change the direction of an entire journey. Welcome to SALLA – Stories from the Middle of Nowhere. A Documentary Series from Lähtökohta Podcast.
